Welcome
to Laos
Laos
is truly a Mekong country, the river runs its full length. It is
a quiet, unexplored jewel of Southeast Asia with only 4.1 million
people. Landlocked between China, Cambodia,Myanmar, Thailand and
Vietnam, Laos has long remained isolated. Despite the fact that
it was heavily bombed in the '60s and early '70, its culture and
scenery remain intact, from the lush green mountains of its North
to the ancient archaeological treasures of its South. You will not
find large numbers of tourists as its leaders are wary of the difficulties
mass tourism can cause. It is said that in Laos, you can lie back
and listen to rice grow. |
